Notes From The Shadows

by theclownsarethere

In Dunwall there is always someone watching. A shadowy figure, marked by the outsider, tells his story through notes and journal entries as events unfold. He watches without ever being seen as darkness ebs further and further into this cursed city.

Note #1: The Whale Oil.

Whoever this Rosenberg is he sure has transformed Dunwall, and likely for the worse. With the recent help of Sokolov industry is booming and hundreds of more whales are being slaughtered just to keep up with the energy demands.

I don't like it and I doubt the outsider does either. Whale bones are sacred artifacts to be inscribed with his mark so I doubt he'll take kindly to this unprovoked slaughter of these magnificent beasts. No one besides me seems to see the danger this holds for Dunwall and its people. Alas as few are as old as me, and those who are end up too much like granny rags and the other few of the corrupted. But I stay in good health and I stay vigilant.

I've retired my blade for years but I may have to lift it again if things get too out of hand. Whatever the case something has to give and soon, and I'll be here to make sure things go the right way.
